8 out of 10 A pretty good episode with some memorable riffs and good host segments(Like Crow and the chicken puppet).It did slow down in some parts and it's too bad the guys didn't make fun of the stage hand near the beginning of the film but with those flaws aside the episode is still enjoyable. Out of this and Neptune Men however I think Neptune Men is the better episode.
Fav riffs
Crow-The Japanese Don Knotts
Servo-Japan by Marx
Crow-It's a watermellon!! Gallagher is taking over!!

7 out of 10. Sorry, but after 30 or so minutes of this movie my head began to throb violently and I began screaming "Your weapons are poweless against me!" to our cats and my wife who hit me with a fly swatter! Ouch! I think the Bear Vs. Coonhound sketch between Crow and Tom was one of the best host segments of season 8! Too many "buffalo shots" of Krankor and his minions for my taste. Ech. Still , the segment when Krankor jumps to fight the Prince of Space and there is this really bad cut of a doll on a string representing Krankor's leap is very funny. The riff "I'll throw my doll at you!" kept me laughing for minutes afterwards! I have never figured out what the Japanese obsession with orphans is all about. Maybe there were so many of them after the firebombing of WWII that it was something deeply ingrained in their culture that everybody could understand. The film was made in 1959 so the war wasn't that far off. I loved Bridget Jones in Roman Garb! Made me want to go to a toga party!

Lots of funny riffs in this one! Krankor and his chicken men provided great fodder for M&TB's to lay into.
9 out of 10 for me.

Great fun. Very similar to Invasion of the Neptune Men. I like PoS (piece of s*it?) better, though. Krankor is the best, nuff said.
9/10.
"Gary got my gun dirty." "Haha. Your breath is bad as well." "This isn't where we parked- oh yeah, up a level." "Ya jerk!"

10 out of 10. The HS were brilliant and the riffing was spectacular!
